FanShot

The Cubs Fans' 5 Stages of September

  1. Denial- "You know what? We can still make the playoffs. We just gotta sweep the Cardinals, Brewers, and Giants on the road. And look we play Pittsburgh at the end of the month! We can do this!"
  2. Anger- "WHY THE @#$% DID WE GET RID OF DEROSA! WHY DIDN'T WE SIGN BRIAN ROBERTS OR JAKE PEAVY?!! GO AFTER CLIFF LEE AND CASH IN ON TRADE DEADLINE! MILTON BRADLEY? AHH @#$%!"
  3. Bargaining- "Please. I just want to see them win a world series ONCE in my lifetime. More the better, but at least once! I'll give anything... money, cars, house, wife.... Just please!
  4. Depression-"It's never going to happen. Why should I even care anymore? We will just end up getting swept out of the playoffs even if we did make it. After all, we are cursed."
  5. Acceptance-"And for the Chicago Cubs..... There is always next year."

Ha, well done.

How’d you get the numbers to show up like that?

That's the "list" version of a FanShot.
Ah, good to know.
I can only assume this means

we’ll be seeing a list with lots of musical notes soon. :-)

Hmm, Top 10 songs describing Cubs '09 season - I'm on it!

Someday we’ll go all the way

Wow. I posted this same idea over a month ago as a FanPost WITH a poll asking BCBers what stage they were in.

I do expect royalties for the idea at least…

Ahem: "Mr. Geiger- my attorney Mr. Christos would like a word with you..."

He’s taken my case on a Pro Bono basis.
